Searching for Grrrl drummer and bassist

Portland OR

Description

We are searching for a couple of confident, hard working musicians who are women, non-binary or trans and who like punk, post-punk and rock 'n'roll! The term Grrrl was used in the title to filter out all the cis men that might reply to this ad but our music isn't super Riot Grrl. Just a little bit! We are two, cis, white women in our late 30's, early 40's who play guitar, among other instruments. We have a practice space in SE Portland (Holgate and Chavez area) and we practice once a week. We already have material to work with but we appreciate and encourage creative input. The two of us have been playing together for many years and have a number of shows under our belts. We like to party on occasion but our practices are, more often than not, sober events. Things we love: Collaboration Communication Vaccinations Yes... and Independent Learners Looking hot on stage Things we are not fans of: Bigots Anti-vaxers Fear of change Toxic positivity Codependent learners Trying to fit into boxes Bands and music that influence our sound: Cock Sparrer, Blitz, Action Pact!, Newtown Neurotics, Protex, Alvila, GoGos, Blondie, Buzzcocks, Stiff Little Fingers, Johnny Thunders, the Clash, the Cure, Penetration, Ramones, Stooges, Xray-Spex, The Shivvers, the Shangri-Las, Kate Bush, Pulp, Northern and rare soul, Yé-yé.
